Indigenous Fashion Arts

Indigenous Fashion Arts sustains Indigenous practices in fashion, craft and textiles through designer-focused initiatives, public engagement and sector innovation. IFA’s primary activity is the biennial Indigenous Fashion Arts Festival. Our programming and initiatives illuminate perceptions of and celebrate Indigenous people and our cultures. We are committed to nurturing the deep connections between mainstream fashion, Indigenous art and traditional practice with amplified visibility of and led by Indigenous women and non-binary people.
